The Name: xenForo

[Hauzer]

Hey all,

Firstly, damn this is some amazing bulletin board software. But the main reason why I created this thread is to know, how did the name xenForo come about? To be honest, I'm not really too fond of the name as it sounds like a less popular branded name, compared to IPB, vBulletin, phpBB ... they're all simple and understandable.

Of course, please don't feel offended, they're just my 2 cents.

Zend framework... xen... ? That's what I thought.

EDIT: my bad, didn't realize this thread was so old...

That's ok. It's still an interesting subject.

I couldn't agree less with the TS/OP. I think it describes the software better than any of those other forum solutions and on top of that sounds cool too
